Boat charter and tour companies in Palma
Palma's identity as a harbour city rests on the view of the cathedral rising above the water and on the marinas stretching from Paseo Marítimo to Club de Mar. Around Real Club Náutico, Moll Vell and the marinas on the western side of the bay, a dense scene of boat rental companies and excursion operators has developed, setting out from here into the Bay of Palma and along the coast.
This category lists 128 entries in Palma - ranging from small family-run operations with motorboats to larger catamaran fleets running day trips. Providers such as Magic Catamarans or Attraction Catamarans Mallorca offer classic catamaran tours along the coastline, while La Lonja Marina Charter, named after the historic quarter close to the harbour, arranges private charter trips. Anyone looking for sailing excursions, sunset cruises or day trips with swimming stops will find a correspondingly wide range of options in Palma.
The season for boat tours from Palma generally runs from April to October, with most departures concentrated in the summer months. Booking ahead is advisable, particularly for smaller boats with limited passenger numbers. The marinas are centrally located and can be reached quickly from both the city centre and the airport.

Can I rent a boat in Mallorca without a licence?
The easiest way is to book with a skipper (patrón) - then you don't need a boat licence yourself. If you want to drive the boat yourself, you'll need an appropriate boat licence; small boats up to 5 metres and 15 hp used to be exempt, but this exception is being tightened under Real Decreto 186/2023. To be safe, either book with a skipper or make sure you hold at least the Spanish Licencia de Navegación - check the current requirement directly with the provider in Palma.
